It wouldny worry me if we didnt spend a penny elsewhere.
If we can rid ourselves sadly of Rawlo and TAR, gladly of Brindley, Randall,Morias, Slocombe, along with Brooks and Mukundafa who arent breaking through then we would look OK.
Chicks Cameron and Baldwin do have something to offer but not without better players around them. Macari the only definite starter for me of the current defenders.
Don't forget that they will be spending money on a new pitch and they hope on this new fan zone. If I remember correctly in the documents to the council it said something along the lines of "The asking price had been reduced from £950k to £720k"
So it looks like they might be buying it.
So the playing budget may well be less than some people expect / hope for.
